Shadowrun Returns Post-funding Update #66: DRM’s End

Better late than never could well be the title of this news, as Harebrained Schemes has announced via a Shadowrun Returns Kickstarter update that their title’s DRM-free version will now be available for everyone rather than just backers, and will be fully supported with DLC, mods and patches. Players that avoid Steam won’t be second-class citizens anymore:

We just want to send out a quick update to share some good news. Thanks to a new agreement we were able to negotiate with our partners at Microsoft, Harebrained Schemes is pleased to announce that we are now able to release fully DRM-free versions of Shadowrun Returns and future expansions such as Berlin.

The DRM-free versions of SRR and Berlin will continue to be fully supported. You’ll be able to download all game patches, use the Shadowrun Returns editor and experience user-generated content downloaded from third-party sites such as Nexus.

We’re starting work to get Shadowrun Returns available on GOG.com right now – not sure how long that will take but we’ll let you know as soon as we have an answer.

We’re very excited we’re finally able to offer Shadowrun DRM-free to everyone and look forward to making it available!
